Learn Coppo
Wine videos
Discover Coppo is a section dedicated to educational content about Coppo and its products.
Below you will find a series of videos dedicated to wines.
We like to think that, in a busy day of our partners and commercial collaborators, a 2-3 minute video can be a quick and easy way, perhaps directly from your mobile phone, to learn more about our wines, prepare a meeting with a potential customer or recover some valuable information on the fly.
For each wine, you will find things to know, the vineyards and the tasting notes, the strengths, the ideal consumers to whom it is aimed.
To learn more, like details on the specific vintages, there are links to the technical datasheets.
These videos are aimed solely at Coppo partners and collaborators.

Coppo has managed the Tenuta La Rocca in Monterotondo in the town of Gavi since the mid-1980s. Gavi, a classic, white Piedmontese wine, is made entirely from the Cortese grape, one of the region’s oldest native varieties. Its name derives from the wine’s original consumer – the nobles of court, or “corte”. Gavi La Rocca comes from marly-calcareous soils that lend it an unexpected mineral complexity.
Costebianche is the youngest Chardonnay produced by Coppo. The wine gets its name from its vineyards, which are planted in naturally white soils of clayey-calcareous marl. I’d recommend Costebianche to whoever looks for freshness, perfume, and immediacy in a Chardonnay.
Monteriolo is perfect for those who usually drink important and complex chardonnays and is willing to explore the uniqueness of a Piemonte chardonnay that could be consumed young but gives its best with long aging, thanks to a very careful use of oak.
This wine is named after the vineyard owner, a lawyer. Strict, stern, and commanding, she has always been known as simply “the lawyer”. The young, vivacious wine is almost comically at odds with its serious namesake.
Literally campo del rosso, or “the redhead’s field” (in Piedmontese, “camp” means vineyard and “du rouss” means red hair), this wine takes its name from the vineyard’s very first owner: a red-headed man who was so burly he frightened the children.
Pomorosso can be considered Coppo’s landmark. It’s a cornerstone of Barbera’s history, a wine that played an important role for the international recognition of Coppo. 100% barbera, Pomorosso always respected the most strict rules of production, even way before they were written down for “Nizza docg”. The soil is marine sediment and rich in minerals, which gives the wine finesse, minerality, and longevity.
Nizza Bric del Marchese is the result of decades of experience working with the barbera variety. The production area is located in the municipality of Nizza Monferrato, very close to the border with Vinchio: it’s the geographical fulcrum of the appelation. Produced in a very limited amount of bottles, this Nizza accurately interprets the typicity of this specific area.
Nizza Pontiselli comes from the homonym area located on the western border of the appelation area. Situated in the municipality of Agliano Terme, Pontiselli is one of the most traditional and suitable areas for the production of barbera. Produced in a very limited amount of bottles, this Nizza accurately interprets the typicity of this specific area.
This “Family Reserve” Barbera comes from a single vineyard located in Castelnuovo Calcea in the heart of the Nizza wine production area, among the most beautiful vineyards that Coppo owns. This Barbera is produced in limited numbers and only during years of exceptional vintage.
Because of its historical significance, Coppo is among the few wineries allowed to vinify Nebbiolo to become Barolo outside of the wine’s strict production zone.
Of the 52 townships that may carry the denomination Moscato DOCG, only 22 are included in the prestigious subzone of “Canelli,” where Moscato has been cultivated since the 13th century. Only grapes that are cultivated above the obligatory 165 meters a.s.l. can be made into Moscato d’Asti DOCG Canelli.
